Did I accidentally download an image that costs?

Hi, I signed up for a free one-month trial of Adobe Stock, during which you can download 10 images for free. The first image I downloaded read 'free' next to it (either in the download button or after the standard license type selection). It was this image: 132900812. The second image I downloaded said nothing but 'Standard license (1 Image)' and 'Extended license (€63.99)'. The 'Standard license (1 Image)' option was already selected for the image in question, so I downloaded it. I'd just like to make it absolutely sure before I proceed to download the ten images that they indeed are free. I mean... doesn't 'the standard license' always cost something when you are not in the trial period? Or as you see, I don't understand how these things work here... hmm... anyway...


So I guess I could boil down my question to this: Can I download any ten images for free that are marked as 'Standard license' (that have no price tag after them like in Extended licenses) now that I'm signed in as 'Adobe Stock – 10 assets a month' user?

Free means free, even without a subscription. Your second picture did cost one plan credit. If you were in the paid period, you could convert that into a cost. Currently, Adobe is paying for this. If you licence something that cost real money, like a video or a premium image, you will get asked a confirmation.

 

You see the number of assets that you still can licence during your first free month if you go to https://stock.adobe.com. If your screen is too small, you will need to click your avatar to see the number of remaining credits.

    Ok, thanks for the clarification. It just started bothering me when the first picture I downloaded clearly said next to it that it was free, but the 'free' text was missing from the second picture.

    So the second asset did cost you a plan credit! You can search for free assets by applying the "free" filter tag.
